NCT ID: NCT06327542 Not yet recruiting - Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

Group-based Integrative Pain Management in Primary Care Safety Net Clinics

IPMP+
Start date: May 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Socioeconomically disadvantaged populations have a high prevalence of chronic pain, exacerbated by social isolation, intersectional stigma, and disparities in pain assessment and treatment options. Effective interventions using a multilevel, biopsychosocial approach are needed to decrease the unequal burden of pain. The proposed study will test group-based integrative models of pain management in primary care safety net clinics to improve pain care for racially and ethnically diverse low-income patients.

NCT ID: NCT06317636 Not yet recruiting - Depression Clinical Trials

Propofol-Enhanced Assessment of Ketamine for Chronic Pain and Depression

PEAK
Start date: May 2024
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare ketamine to a placebo when given as a single infusion during sedation in adults with chronic pain and depression. This study aims to: - Evaluate whether ketamine is more effective than a placebo in treating chronic pain and depression - Confirm that propofol sedation is a safe way to keep participants blinded to treatment - Assess patients' comfort with the sedation process to improve future studies - Explore whether patient expectations affects their pain and depression Participants will: - Need to qualify for the study based on stringent medical criteria - Undergo sedation with propofol - Randomly receive either a ketamine or a placebo (saline) infusion during sedation - Complete several study assessments over 5-7 weeks

One MORE for Chronic Pain in Latinos

Start date: March 25, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study will be a single-site, two-arm randomized controlled trial conducted among Spanish-speaking chronic pain patients. Chronic pain patients will be randomized by a computer-generated randomization schedule with simple random allocation (1:1) to either One MORE or a wait-list control condition (WLC). One MORE will be delivered individually either in-person or via a HIPAA compliant virtual meeting platform.

NCT ID: NCT06315959 Not yet recruiting - Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

Bilateral Erector Spinae Plane Block for Postoperative Chronic Pain After Open Heart Surgery

Start date: April 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of bilateral erector spinae plane (ESP) block application on postoperative chronic pain in patients undergoing on-pump open-heart surgery. At 3 months post-discharge, patients will be contacted by phone to assess their chronic pain status. Pain intensity and status will be evaluated using the Brief Pain Inventory, and the character of pain will be assessed using the Douleur Neuropathique 4 (DN4) score. Additionally, the patient's anxiety and depression status will be evaluated using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale.

NCT ID: NCT06314152 Recruiting - Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

3-point With 1-point Mesh Fixation in TAPP for Inguinal Hernia

Start date: January 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study was designed to compare the outcome of 3 point with 1 point lightweight mesh fixation in TAPP surgery for patients with inguinal hernia. The main outcome include seroma, chronic pain, recurrence, et al.

NCT ID: NCT06312735 Recruiting - Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

VR for Patients With Chronic Pain (Wait & Work)

Start date: October 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This cluster-RCT evaluates the effect of therapeutic virtual reality (VR) on patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP) who are on a waiting list to receive pain treatment. The used VR application, Reducept, offers pain education and pain management techniques. This home-based, stand-alone, immersive VR intervention was used daily for four weeks in the intervention group. The control group received standard care (no treatment). Primary outcome measure for this study was health-related quality of life, secondary outcome measures included various pain-related variables (e.g. pain self-efficacy and acceptance. Outcome variables will be measured after four weeks and follow-up after six months.

NCT ID: NCT06311240 Not yet recruiting - Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

Chronic Pain in Patients in Hemodialysis

DolERC
Start date: March 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Pain is one of the most common symptoms among patients with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), and often goes unrecognized or inadequately managed in hemodialysis patients. More than 50% of patients undergoing hemodialysis suffer from pain, with 75% of them being treated ineffectively due to healthcare professionals' lack of awareness of this symptom. Therefore, pain management in this population is a complex and challenging task for healthcare providers. The most prevalent pain syndromes in hemodialysis patients include musculoskeletal disorders, metabolic neuropathies, in addition to typical intradialytic pain. The aim of this study is to assess the presence and characteristics of chronic pain in patients with ESRD undergoing hemodialysis to determine whether it is relevant to include the management of chronic pain in the holistic treatment (physical activity, nutrition, and psychological support) already being implemented in various studies for these patients.

NCT ID: NCT06308887 Completed - Pain, Chronic Clinical Trials

Comparison of Ultrasound-Guided Perimeniscal Steroid and 5% Dextrose Injections in Knee Osteoarthritis

Start date: October 2, 2023
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Introduction: The primary goal of treating knee osteoarthritis is to reduce pain and improve the patient's quality of life. Medial meniscal extrusion is a condition that is linked to pain and disability in knee osteoarthritis and can be identified through ultrasound. For patients with medial meniscal extrusion, perimeniscal corticosteroid injection has been shown to be a helpful addition to primary treatment for moderate to severe pain relief. Dextrose prolotherapy has also been found to provide periarticular benefits for knee osteoarthritis. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided perimeniscal corticosteroid and perimeniscal dextrose injections in patients with osteoarthritis, medial knee pain, and medial meniscal extrusion. Method: Patients with medial knee pain and meniscal extrusion were randomly divided into two groups using the double-block randomization method. Group 1 included 15 patients who were administered an ultrasound-guided perimeniscal steroid injection, while Group 2 included 16 patients who were administered an ultrasound-guided perimeniscal dextrose injection. The patients' pain levels were evaluated using the Visual Analog Pain Scale (VAS) and the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) before and one week, one month, and three months after the injection.

NCT ID: NCT06306157 Not yet recruiting - Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

Low Dose Naltrexone Therapy for Complex Regional Pain Syndrome

LDN-CRPS
Start date: April 2024
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) is a rare and often debilitating chronic pain condition whereby individuals may experience extreme sensitivity, discoloration, and swelling of the affected area -- along with numerous other painful symptoms. There are currently a limited number of treatment options available to those suffering with the condition, with various treatments including nerve blocks, neuropathic medications, and desensitization physical therapy modules. There is budding interesting in the role naltrexone, an opiate antagonist, may play in the pain management of CRPS when prescribed in very low doses. This study aims to collect preliminary data on pain scores, symptom severity, and side-effects in patients with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome randomized to receive low dose naltrexone or placebo capsules. Enrollment of 40 patients total will occur over two years from study start to study end. Each patient will be randomized to receive placebo capsules or active low dose naltrexone capsules, with both the patient and treating clinician blind to the randomization. Each patient will be actively enrolled in the study for six months and will take the medication daily at the instructed dose for the respective duration of time. Following the initial visit and study enrollment, the investigators are asking each patient to return for three (3) in-person follow-up office visits. These office visits will occur 1 month after the patient starts the medication, 3 months afterwards, and 6 months afterwards. The final 6-month office visit will mark the conclusion of the patient's active participation in the study.
